eyin eyan mi o. enle beun o. by the way, where toyosi20 dey self ![]() |
Ranoscky:WHEN DID I EVER SAY THAT ENYEAMA LACKS ALL THAT I LISTED ABOVE? GEEZ, LEARN HOW TO READ BEFORE YOU TALK, IF ANYTHING, HE IS A GREAT SHOT-STOPPER EVEN THOUGH THE GUY IS NOT COMPLETE. I JUST OUTLINED MOST IMPORTANT ATTRIBUTES THAT GREAT GOALKEEPER HAVE AND YOU STARTED MOUTHING OFF. WHY DON'T YOU YOURSELF KEEP YOUR OPINIONS TO YOURSELF IF YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY. BOY WHY DO SOME PEOPLE ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY. AND YES, ROBERT GREEN SHOWED POOR TECHNIQUE IN THAT BLUNDER AGAINST THE USA. |
omar22, you are right the most important things you look for in a goal keepers are; TALENT (INSTINCTS/ AGILITY/ ATHLETICISM) TECHNIQUE (look at robert green's poor technique that caused USA to score at the world cup) POSITIONAL AWARENESS (being in the right place at the right time and not getting cut out of position) PRESENCE (THIS COULD INCLUDE HEIGHT AND OTHERS) CONFIDENCE (INCLUDING COURAGE) To highlight just a few points, courage could include the willingness to put yourself in harms way just to get the ball. Looking at the decline of Petr Cech over the years because of the skull fracture. The great goalkeepers have this like Peter Schmichel, Oliver Kahn, Gigi Buffon and very few others. |
okunoba:WORD SON. If Igor Akinfeev is still in Russia and Hugo Lloris is still in the French league then who is Enyeama? and besides, how many goalkeepers can you have at a club? max 3, and you can only have one starting and you can't easily substitute them. soloqy, You hit the nail on the head maybe they didn't like his consistency. toluxa1:IN CASE YOU FORGOT, THE ISRAELI LEAGUE IS NOT EXACTLY THE BEST LEAGUE IN THE WORLD IF YOU HAVE NOT NOTICED YET. |
HAS ANYBODY EVER ASKED THEMSELVES WHETHER THE GUY IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. THERE IS A POPULAR ADAGE IN FOOTBALL; YOU NEVER (EVER) SIGN A PLAYER BASED ON WORLD CUP PERFORMANCES BECAUSE ANYBODY CAN PEAK IN THE WORLD CUP OR HAVE A COUPLE OF GOOD GAMES. THE SECRET TO ASSESSING A PLAYER IS WATCHING HIM OVER THE LONG COURSE OF HIS CLUB GAMES BEFORE YOU ASSESS THE PLAYER. MAYBE THE SCOUTS HAVE SEEN SOMETHING THAT THEY DON'T LIKE IN THE GUY. DON'T LET WORLD CUP PERFORMANCES FOOL YOU PEOPLE, ANYBODY CAN SHINE IN THE WORLD CUP (EVER HEARD OF SALENKO, SCHILLACCI AND DIOUF?). |
THE TURKISH LEAGUE IS A USELESS LEAGUE. WHY DOESN'T HE GO AND PLAY IN CYPRUS THEN? OR WORST OF ALL GO PLAY FOR AL-AHLY OF EGYPT, AFTERALL, THEY'VE WON SO MANY TROPHIES. |
Credible Elections Will Foster Political Stability -jonathanDUH!!! way to state the obvious mr. president. What were you expecting, a nod in agreement?, a clap?, or a pat on the back? |
babzilla, mbulela, og2711 and co. I don't blame the Nigerians on here supporting Shittu, they are ignorant they have no idea how the football business works, all they know how to do is shout "a goal" when someone scores, they don't understand the business aspect of it that's why they are talking the same way. THE REALLY FUNNY ONE'S ARE THE ONES THAT ARE INCLUDING SKIN COLOR INTO THE ARGUEMENT. Babzilla:HA HA HAHA, omo you wicked o. |
If richard kingson, the best goal keeper in Africa is the third choice goalie at Wigan of all places then what more Vinny Enyeama. |
kcjazz:WOW!!! SO WE SHOULD EMBRACE MEDIOCRITY AS A COUNTRY ABI? |
and the only way it can do that would be to revive the energy sector soa sto kick start industrialization. If they can't do that then they are wasting there time. |
kcjazz:if you read this my earlier post, you would understand that Nigeria has no football talent anymore. https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?topic=478629.msg6596197#msg6596197 |
I remember when i was in secondary school in PH i used to hear about all this "outlaws", "icelanders" and those "vikiboys". Its so sad that PH is devolving into Somalia. |
WHEN THE ECONOMY GETS BETTER. |
kcjazz:ARE YOU BLIND TO REALITY? OR IS YOUR SENSE OF PATRIOTISM JUST EXTREMELY SKEWED? WHEN DOES "SUPPORTING OUR OWN" MEAN SUPPORTING MEDIOCRITY? MEDIOCRITY IS MEDIOCRITY WHETHER IT MASKS HIMSELF IN SKIN COLOR, ETHNICITY OR NATIONALITY. NIGERIA SIMPLY DOESN'T PRODUCE PLAYERS ANYMORE AND ITS "SUPPORT-OUR-OWN" MENTALITY THAT WOULD MAKE IT WORSE. Poster, By the way, Joseph Yobo is not going to West Ham but to Fenerbache. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=819624&sec=transfers&cc=5901 |
WHEN ARE WE GOING TO HAVE GOOD LEADERS ONCE AGAIN.

he has a contract with heartland f.c and he must honor it. |
nigeria does not have an extradition treaty with the u.s. |
AngieFan:GBAM!!! ORI E PE! YOU HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD. |
FOR THE FIRST TIME, I AM PROUD OF THE WIFE OF AN ELECTED OFFICIAL. GREAT JOB BY HER. I HOPE THAT ALL THIS OVER-ZEALOUS GOVERNORS LIKE FASHOLA AND CO. WHO GO ABOUT DESTROYING PEOPLE'S LIVES AND LIVELIHOODS ALL IN THE NAME OF "DEVELOPMENT" HEAR THIS. |
OMO, LET THE GIRL FLEE O. SHE SHOULD RUN AWAY FROM HIM. |
[size=18pt]IN NIGERIA, MARRIAGE SEEMS TO BE ALL ABOUT MAKING BABIES RATHER THAN THE COUPLE. THIS IS HOW MARRIAGES USED TO BE IN ALMOST EVERY CULTURE BEFORE THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY. WHY DO YOU THINK KINGS DESPERATELY WANTED HEIRS TO THE THRONE. [/size] |
@poster, Because there is nothing to return home to. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=154714.msg6564954#msg6564954 date=1281665612]you make a good point. but[i] maybe[/i] these asian students that come to study in the US are at the top of their class in their respective countries? many international students in d US are at the top of their class back home. which is why US accept them on scholarship. otherwise, it's because they are very wealthy.[/quote]NOOOOOOOOOOOO, THAT IS WRONG. THAT'S ABSOLUTELY NOT WHAT I MEANT. What i meant is that the most unremarkable and average Asian Students come to grad school in the US and dominate. Students that can't get into , Kyoto university, IIT or BeiDA or worst of all are the middle-of-the-road students in the less prestigious schools come here and still dominate. Obviously, oyinda, you are not a science grad student so you wouldn't know what i am talking about, because if you were in the sciences or engineering were there are lotss of Asians, you would know what i am talking about. |
He simply went for the money because Betis was on a spending spree then They bought Denilson for a world record in the same period.Correction: Denilson went to Betis after the 1998 world cup, that was two years after Finidi. |
Now tell me why Finidi would leave Ajax that was top 3 in Europe for Real Madrid, Barcelona or those Italian clubs whom Ajax was beating regularly in Europe.Oh, then why did he go to a team like Real Betis that was waaaaaaaaaaay below those teams that he used to beat uhn? Also, why did his colleagues like Patrick Kluivert, Edgar Davids, Michael Reiziger, Winston Bogarde (AC Milan), Seedorf (Sampdoria), de Boer's (Barcelona), Kanu (Internazionale) all end up in this clubs then. |
dayokanu:Don't throw the word "effortlessly" around anyhow jare. Like i said, when i think of wingers of the 90's i think Roberto Donadoni, Ryan Giggs, Marc Overmars, Luis Figo this where the players who played for the big clubs around the world and became household names. I can't put your boy there because if he was so good, the Barca's, Madrid's, and the Italian Clubs would have been trying to break the bank for him but obviously he ended up in a mid table team like Sevilla. |
dayokanu:Yeah, but that does not mean there league was better than the English league, it just meant that there team was simply better which means that the Dutch league was a very top heavy league, with one good team and everybody else average. |
jumie:Excellent post. I wish i could tell all my naija friends this. |
chidichris:ha haha. |
